Summed up:
1: I'm to lazy to do my part.
2: I want YOU to take all the risk.
3: But I want the profit still.
Dunno about #1, but 2,3 are totally accurate.
Also 4 - pretty much every LS has a guy that already offers this....

People don’t do the MNK strat because it’s less engaging than the meta DNC strat with only MNK doing all the work on Aminon.
DNC does most of the heavy lifting in current strat on Aminon anyways, with COR+RDM providing a good 800k-1m each. I've been in Aminon groups where the COR or RDM didn't really add much and we still were fine, just a little slower. My measly 500k-600k on GEO is appreciated but completely unnecessary, we would win without it. So if what we are talking about is "this setup and strat is more fun because everyone is involved", I agree with you. If what you're looking for is success rate and the safest strategy (aka higher chance of winning, because DD can go overboard and Aminon gets a move off), then MNK is always preferred. But those are two different things.

Are you sure we are capped? Our RDM hits the occasional 99,999 on basement bosses but never on Aminon.
I can't see how you aren't attack capped with Dia 3* -23% def, Bolster Fury +120% attack/Frailty -42% def , like +900 attack from songs, and another -23% defense from Box Step, and Last resort. If you're not attack capped, then Aria is doing nothing for 9-boss groups, which I'm almost positive almost all groups are using.
Not hitting 99k is not a visible representation of attack cap being met on the RDM though. I'd have to check my logs to see if our RDM ever hit 99k. He is ML50, but I'm not sure if he had absorb-str/mnd on and entrust str/mnd on. Maybe with a Souleater+Consume Mana and high MP you could hit 99k, but that still has nothing to do with whether or not you're attack capped.

Just learned that if you open chest and and you have overflow drops if you clear space it will give the drops to you as you make space and leave menu

You already cap attack in 9 boss with SV songs Minuets/HM and Bolster Frailty Fury. Pretty sure Chaos Roll and Shell Crusher (may not land unless in correct mode anyways) are unnecessary, unless Bolster bubbles drop, in which case a Chaos might be enough to cap. Monk's Roll is also kind of redundant and unnecessary unless it's for a mage strat IMO. Most DD jobs can toggle an easy 40-50 Subtle Blow WS set or get the other 10from Auspice, just by sacrificing waist, rings, and ear slots or neck (Bathy). Tacticians/Misers still seems better

Quote: Monk deserves it's time to shine, even if it is 1000g/swing.
Pretty sure Sterk has been doing MNK Aminon since before Ampulla was out. It's the same strategy you always use monk for, nothing has changed besides you are stronger with the ammo, the strategy is exactly the same for all bosses. The spotlight hasn't shifted to Monk because of Hoxnr because it was always the best job for the TP mitigation feed strategy, just people don't like to use Monk in groups. It's got sure way easier to MULTIBOX MNK vs DNC
|
|
 |
|
Yeah.
By chance do you have a 8 boss video using MNK Not yet.
What are weaponskills broken down for AECG vs BF and D/H? Are BRD/COR/RDM doing savage blade, GEO Black Halo?

Ruining a character ban/reputation for an HQ is pretty crazy.
Especially with a shield.
But nope all good, and yeah don’t know the inflation rate compared to when I made shield but it was easily 2B Gil around 8years ago when I finished.

Speaking of Star Wars, Kathleen Kennedy is stepping down (totally for real this time)! See you again in two weeks when she's stepping down (totally for real this time) again.

I feel like I ought to point out that I had ranked up while LEVELING UP in Monstrosity, not just from unlocking a new species or variant.
when I was doing tiger i would exit eveyr 10 levels or so to see if my MR went up, no luck.

I see now, they added glowing to the ??? for the sliced pole in novemeber.
Thats what it was.

It's from 2007, so I don't think so. I didn't know they were trying to make it less ***

That's interesting. Did you cross any of the instinct thresholds (lvl 30, 60, or 90)? Did your monster learn any new abilities while you were leveling up? Some species get a lot of abilities as you level up and then don't get their last one until lvl 99.

Tourist v1.2 is now live people. The changelog in the readme file will tell you what files you have to update (no need to re-download all the images).
In short:
* Fixed a bug where Dynamis - Jeuno [D] was not recognized
* added large and small images for Jeuno [D] since apparently I never made those
* Fixed a bug where the NPC 'Ernst' was not correctly recognized as an Abyssea warp NPC
* rewrote the NPC lookup logic to hopefully prevent the kind of error messages that some users were having during cutscenes.
* Added support for the "Lure of the Wildcat" NPCs that can warp you to Whitegate for 300 gil.

If you weren’t multiboxing, a RDM/DRK with a BRD/WHM or GEO/WHM seems like the better play. Having access to chainspell absorb TP for Aminon would be a huge boon. Not to mention it getting reset with WC.

|
 |
|
Yeah.

KoH would make you more durable with phalanx II and use Dia III as well. Why not just use Hastega from Garuda on yourself? You don’t need to tag the mob you cast a debuff bubble on btw, but you will have to tag mobs after or just heal your SMN once with a cure.

Yeah Oshala is actually good for damage. I usually save TP till 1.5-2k since it seems to scale well. It opens up some fantastic SC opportunities with ifrit too

Rank 7 Currently (started at rank 6 last week Doing Bastok & Sandy quest). Did Nearly all of Windy & Jueno Quest
Got Blobdingnag & Yilbean Titles but did not rank up.
Starting on outlands quest next. damn I started as 6 trying to 7.
went from 430 -> 780 ROEs
titles 417 -> 630
ranked 3 nations to 10
finisherd ACP(all storyline complete now)
golden shovel + ygnas
craft to 0>110 with several subs 70
fame capped all regular and 2 abyssya
all homepoints/survival guide
finished almost windy/bastok quests prob about 10 left
monstrosity tiger lvl 83. about 15 new species unlocked
Still 6. I must be missing something obvious but at this point its comical.
Did you buy 1 piece of armor for each Nation rank1-10 (x3 nations = 30 titles in total)? Make sure you buy an actual armor, like head/body/hands/legs or feet. I'm not sure if every item in a given rank counts. Better safe than sorry.
Also, did you trade Kupipi a rolanberry? Even the quests that are not in your quest log count, too. I didn’t buy armor just snagged the first item on the list to obtain the titles. Is there any reason to get the armor over the others or your intent is just for the titles?
1 item per tier for the title is enough.
